Wasn't Harper all about putting dumb signs everywhere too? "Canada's Action Plan" or something?

I believe the last 2 federal elections and the Ontario election polling all had major shifts in the month or two before the election which would align with the timing of debates. Layton's debate performance definitely made a difference in 2011.

Jagmeet became the most popular politician in Canada during the election. I think he'll try to build on that.

Someone posted something about NDP fundraising going way up in the last few weeks (above 2011 levels) but I couldn't find any more info. Anyone have details?

It’s a step forward that Poundmaker and the Cree were included. Hard to reconcile with Canada having the RCMP as a special unit that creates national parks though.

The Cree weren't happy about it.

BCers with less than $62.5k declared on their income taxes for 2019 get a $500 tax-free deposit, application page goes up on the 18th.

With reduced payments for up to 87k individual income which is news to me.

The Guildford Rec Center had about a dozen rows of seats. Each row had someone going up answering questions and giving info then another giving the injection. It was a pretty efficient process.

I'm trying my hand at the pharmacy astrazeneca lottery.

Registration with Shoppers drug mart was super easy, the other pharmacies are a big pain in the button and you have to register through each company separately.

Would be nice if there was just one centralized public program for this. I mean, besides the one that's so slow I'm doing this instead.

This will get you all the Sobeys pharmacies

The only actually good CBC drama in the past 30 years was The Rez change my mind

Edit: Assuming that The Odyssey where that kid fell out of a tree and went into a coma and went on adventures inside his coma was made more than 30 years ago

Trickster was fantastic but another one cancelled by the CBC. Because the show runner lied about being Indigenous I think.

Does anyone recall a show on TV Ontario - it had a boot, a woman's shoe, an elderly grandma puppet, and this monster-like puppet called "thing" (which used to give me horrible nightmares). It found a video on youtube long ago but lost the link. I want to see that monster puppet again. I think it was filmed in the 1970's and was on TV before Today's Special and Fables of the green forest. (Had the same kind of creepy vibe to it as "Read all about it).

Readalong?

Edit: Maybe this will bring back some traumatic memories for you.

Does stuff filmed in BC count as cancon cause if so the X-Files, Stargate SG-1 and Battlestar Galactica were rad.

Any sci-fi show that uses SFU as an alien planet is ok in my book.

Gotta be produced by a Canadian film company so Beachcombers is it.

edit: But actually I just watched a couple Odyssey episodes on YouTube and was surprised to (re?)discover it was filmed in BC.
